The Learning Center provides academic support services tailored to your individual needs. In this welcoming environment, we deliver high-quality academic support services to ensure your success, no matter your area of study. Work one-on-one with a tutor, improve your study strategies or participate in co-curricular programs that enhance classroom learning.
Another helpful service the Learning Center provides is test performance analysis (TPA), where students meet one-on-one with a learning specialist to identify strategies that can be used to improve future test performance. This service is only available for multiple-choice tests and requires access to the test(s) prior to the session. To schedule a TPA appointment, please contact a learning support coordinator.
